STREAM ON AND THEN SOME: How to watch Saturday’s Hall of Fame inductions

CHICAGO – The Induction Ceremony for the National Soccer Hall of Fame Class of 2018 will be streamed on the new National Soccer Hall of Fame website beginning at 5:30 p.m. ET Saturday.

The ceremony will also stream live on the Hall of Fame’s Facebook, Twitter and YouTube accounts, as well as the Facebook accounts of Major League Soccer and the New England Revolution.

The National Soccer Hall of Fame Class of 2018 includes former U.S. Soccer president Dr. Bob Contiguglia on the Builder ballot, players Tiffeny Milbrett and Brad Friedel on the Player ballot as well as Cindy Parlow Cone on the Veteran ballot and MLS commissioner Don Garber.

The Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be followed by performances from the Revivalists and Grammy Award-winning band, Imagine Dragons.
